Is nontargeted data acquisition for target analysis (nDATA) in mass spectrometry a forward-thinking analytical approach?
(Wiley, 2022-10-21)
Targeted mass spectrometry is extensively used for the quantitative measurement of various molecules present in complex matrices. It is certainly one of the most important analytical duties in a mass spectrometry laboratory. ...
Resiniferatoxin hampers the nocifensive response of Caenorhabditis elegans to noxious heat, and pathway analysis revealed that the Wnt signaling pathway is involved
(Springer, 2021-10-25)
Resiniferatoxin (RTX) is a metabolite extracted from Euphorbia resinifera. RTX is a potent capsaicin analog with specific biological activities resulting from its agonist activity with the transient receptor potential ...
Proteomics reveals long-term alterations in signaling and metabolic pathways following both myocardial infarction and chemically induced denervation
(Elsevier, 2022-06-18)
Myocardial infraction (MI) is the principal risk factor for the onset of heart failure (HF). Investigations regarding the physiopathology of MI progression to HF have revealed the concerted engagement of other tissues, ...
Antinociceptive activity of vanilloids in caenorhabditis elegans is mediated by the desensitization of the TRPV channel OCR-2 and specific signal transduction pathways
(Springer, 2023-02-03)
Vanilloids, including capsaicin and eugenol, are ligands of transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subfamily member 1 (TRPV1). Prolonged treatment with vanilloids triggered the desensitization of TRPV1, leading to ...
Characterization of Endoproteolytic Processing of Dynorphins by Proprotein Convertases using Mouse Spinal Cord S9 Fractions and Mass Spectrometry
(2016-06-01)
Dynorphins are important neuropeptides with a central role in nociception and pain alleviation. Many mechanisms regulate endogenous dynorphin concentrations, including proteolysis. Proprotein convertases (PCs) are widely ...
Tachykinins Processing is Significantly Impaired in PC1 and PC2 Mutant Mouse Spinal Cord S9 Fractions
(2015-11-01)
Substance P (SP) play a central role in nociceptive transmission and it is an agonist of the
Neurokinin-1 receptor located in the lamina I of the spinal cord. SP is a major proteolytic product
of the protachykinin-1 ...
Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Linear Ion Trap Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Targeted Neuropeptides in Tac1-/- Mouse Spinal Cords Reveal Significant Lower Concentration of Opioid Peptides
(2015-08)
Tachykinin and opioid peptides play a central role in pain transmission, modulation and
inhibition. The treatment of pain is very important in medicine and many studies using NK1
receptor antagonists failed to show ...
Evaluation of multiple reaction monitoring cubed for the analysis of tachykinin related peptides in rat spinal cord using a hybrid triple quadrupole–linear ion trap mass spectrometer
(2014-02)
Targeted peptide methods generally use HPLC-MS/MRM approaches. Although dependent on
the instrumental resolution, interferences may occur while performing analysis of complex
biological matrices. HPLC-MS/MRM3 is a ...
Untargeted and targeted metabolomics reveal that adenosine nucleotides released in Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae supernatant inhibit porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus replication
(Elsevier, 2022-02-18)
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the most devastating viruses in the swine industry and causes major economic losses. To date, there has not been an effective antiviral treatment for ...
